I know with rl retailers whipping out Christmas decorations before the halloween stuff is even off the shelf, things can get pretty confusing. In light of this, I'm posting this friendly reminder as a public service.
It goes like this:
Halloween (October)
Thanksgiving (November)
Christmas (December)
Please make a note of it.

I saw lit up fake Christmas trees for sale at my grocery store a week before Halloween this year.

Well I went shopping for some SL Christmas Decorations last night - was nice to see some of the things out  Personally, I can't wait to see all the items. Decorating the houses/sim is such a pain sometimes .. I would prefer to put it up and leave it for awhile before having to change it again. |

Local Wal Mart had a christmas isle in August. Went into Office Depot last night and they were playing christmas songs.
Jesus, save us from your retailers!

I totally blame the turkeys. They *have* to be behind this madness.

I'm so glad we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK.
